What to expect
You'll start on the water with basics: how to hold the paddle, balance on the board, and execute clean strokes. The instructor keeps the pace relaxed and adjustable to your ability. Expect some bobbing about at first—everyone's wobbly initially—but the protected waters mean you can focus on technique rather than fighting conditions. By the end you'll paddle short distances with growing ease and understand why locals rate this as a proper way to see the shoreline.
Good to know
Bring a towel and dry clothes. Water temperature varies seasonally. The lesson happens in a calm bay, so previous swimming ability helps but isn't essential. Public buses run nearby if you're not driving.
